Have a safe and legal spring break trip

— Quintez Brown

Do not let one week ruin your whole life.

Spring break is a little over a month away. This vacation period may be one of the most anticipated weeks of the year. No classes, extravagant trips and the beach. For many college students, this also means a lot of alcohol.

According to the Spend Matters Network, “College students alone spend more than $1 billion every year on spring break.”

The culture and mindset that comes with spring break, mixed with alcohol and other party drugs, can have dangerous and long term consequences.
